A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

Chapter 77 22. True Genius

In an office on the third floor of a comprehensive office building.

Levi sat on the sofa, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.

The office is decorated in a low-key and luxurious style, with two rows of sofas facing each other. Sunlight shines in from the windows, creating a floating light.

Levi was the only one in the office at this time, and he had been waiting here for an hour.

The staff member just now took him and Charlie to the office. She told them that the principal was not available for the time being and asked them to wait a moment.

Levi didn't have any objections. He was very free today.

After the two waited for about ten minutes, a teacher took Charlie to take the ISEE test, which is the entrance exam.

Levi, on the other hand, flipped through the recipe book in boredom and looked at the formulas that the two mixers had exploded.

【Inaudible Wind Chime】

[Rating: 5C]

[Materials required: Spiritual salt*1, sufficient silver, mistletoe vine*1, sound recording carrier*1]

[Explanation: The characteristic fragments left by the tuner (professional department), partial to Yin]

[The flowing silver wind chime, all the voices of the person wearing it will be erased]

[In addition, in the ears of B-level wizards or above, or the person designated by the wearer, the wearer will emit a crisp wind chime sound]

……

【Exciting drumhead】

[Rating: 5C]

[Materials required: sulfur, sufficient steel, monster leather*1, sound recording carrier*1]

[Explanation: There are also trait fragments left by the tuner (professional system), Yang]

[The drum exudes the smell of steel. Creatures hearing the sound of the drum will feel strong nausea and dizziness, or arouse ferocity and attack power (determined by the user)]

The effects of both props are powerful enough, but the materials required are even stranger.

Levi closed his eyes and thought for a while about where to get mistletoe and monster leather. The water ghost obviously couldn't do it. It only had a thin layer of skin on its body.

At this time, the office door was pushed open, and an old gentleman with a well-proportioned figure and gray hair walked in with a few things.

Levi immediately came to his senses and stood up with a smile.

"Good morning, I'm Levi, I made an appointment before."

"Good morning." The old gentleman nodded and replied, "I am the principal of this school - the second-generation principal, Derek Stanford."

The two shook hands, and Levi noticed that Mr. Stanford did not treat him differently because of Levi's Serisian status, which made Levi feel a little good about him.

"Sorry, I suddenly had something happen before, and I just went to see Mr. Hank again, so I was late."

After the two sat down, Mr. Stanford explained a little apologetically, and Levi shook his head and smiled.

"Don't be sorry. I have plenty of time today. Besides, the coffee tastes great."

"Hehehe, I'm glad you like it. We use coffee beans from Lafite."

Mr. Stanford said that Levi's etiquette and attitude made him realize that the other party was obviously educated, and he then showed what he was holding.

There were several test papers, and each one had an A grade. In other words, at a glance, Levi's eyes were full of red circles representing correctness, and there were not even a few mistakes.

"You can look at it...it's amazing, isn't it?" Mr. Stanford said.

"Such students are rare now. Even the students at Huck School are addicted to movies, tap dancing and superhero comics... Of course, I'm not saying that these things will ruin them. The world needs new things - it's just that, I still hope that students can put their energy back into the pursuit of knowledge..."

"What particularly surprises me is that you said in your appointment letter that Mr. Hank was just an uneducated newsboy?"

"That's right." Levi flipped through the test papers dumbfounded. There were four papers in total, namely grammar, reading, operation and mathematics. Of course the questions are not complicated, they are only equivalent to those in the sixth grade of Levi Primary School, but didn’t Charlie never go to school?

Especially mathematics, he even solved algebra problems and calculated the area of ​​a parallelogram!

"Well, sir, I need to thank you in advance for discovering a rising star in academia and possibly politics in our school."

Mr. Stanford said sincerely: "You have really done a good thing. Mr. Hank is a real genius. Such a person should not spend his life selling newspapers."

"Yes, yes..." Levi followed.

"In particular, look at this question." Mr. Stanford pointed to the parallelogram question, which was also the question that Levi had just focused on.

A horizontal, standard parallelogram is drawn on it, and the lower and right sides are written: 5 and 3 respectively.

There is a brief explanation on the side: the height is 4.

"Haha, this question doesn't look complicated, but the fact is that many people will regard the bottom line as the bottom line, and many adults can't do it." Mr. Stanford said with interest, "However, what makes me curious is , how did Mr. Hank know that the hypotenuse of a parallelogram must be longer than the height? Did you tell him?"

"No." Levi shook his head honestly, "Maybe he is really a genius?"

"With all due respect, it's almost certain because math is his worst subject and you can look at grammar and reading and there are almost no mistakes!"

Stanford seems to admire Charlie more than Levi.

"I originally planned to send him to the fourth or fifth grade, but now, I hope you can directly send him to the sixth grade."

The United States of Phoenix implements a K-12 education system, from K (pre-kindergarten) to 5th grade, which is elementary school, and 6th grade is equivalent to the first grade of junior high school.

Levi thought for a moment and nodded.

"I think so. Charlie probably doesn't need to learn the most basic things anymore."

He then added another sentence and asked: "Besides, if I remember correctly, the enrollment range for the sixth grade is 6 to 11 years old?"

This is also the admission age for Hogwarts. The magic school created by a famous British JK actually combines the three years of junior high school and the four years of high school in the Western education system.

"Yes." Stanford nodded. "This is more similar to Charlie's age. I believe he would also prefer to be in the same class with people of his own age."

"Then, let's decide." Levi said happily without hesitation.

He didn't expect things to go so smoothly. Stanford was always speaking, and Levi didn't even have a chance to interrupt.

"I thought things would be more troublesome." Levi stood up with a smile and couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed. "This is a prestigious school after all. My colleagues joked that this is the place for the children of financiers, politicians and scholars. paradise."

Mr. Stanford shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Haha, what's shameful is that he was right."

"Of course, this is not because we have any problem with the children of minorities or poor people. The first generation principal once said that we want all the children of St. Francis to be our children."

"It's just that you should have read the theory of evolution, right? Children of poor people lack the genes for intelligence and have difficulty getting proper education, so they always lose in competition with children of rich people."

"However, I hope Mr. Hank will be a good start..." Mr. Stanford pulled a form from behind the desk.

"You need to fill in this, we need to collect the information of the student's guardian." He said, "And, you are not a relative of Mr. Hank, right? In this case, you also need to provide a custody guarantee signed by his parents. "

"Okay, that's not a problem." Levi dipped in ink and wrote his message on the paper.

The guarantee form is very simple, just ask Louise to sign it, but unfortunately she is not at home today.

When filling in the occupation column, Levi stopped.

BOI investigator... doesn't seem to be a profession that can be written liberally?

After thinking for a moment, Levi happily wrote down one of his life goals in his previous life.

"civil servant"

　Sorry... Exam week is coming, I can’t do double updates today, I am tearful and only update one day, I’m sorry Liao~
